Why Stay Close to Home on Your First RV Trip as a Beginner?

• You know where to go (home or familiar stores) if you forget supplies.
• You’re not far from your community if you need help.
• If something breaks down, towing your RV back to your house won't take long or cost too much.
• You do less driving and more time getting familiar with your RV.
• You won’t hurt your wallet on gas expenses if you overpack (which most first-timers do!)

St. Augustine Songwriters Night

• Two revered St. Augustine singesongwriters, Bob Patterson and David Watt Besley, host a live music event featuring other local singesongwriters, on the third Tuesday of every month from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. at the Oasis Deck and Restaurant on Anastasia Island.
• Each of these monthly events offers two hours of stories and songs as Bob and David share the stage with two invited musical guests. This long-running event is a favorite for locals who enjoy hearing songs they know as well as the occasional debut of a brand new song. Guests have included Amy Hendrickson, Katherine Archer, Lonesome Bert Hodge, John Dickie, Don Cooper, Gail Carson, and other local songwriters --- plus the occasional out-of-towner.
• The format is simple and one that is found at songwriters events: the four participating singesongwriters relax on stools as each one relates a tale and sings one of their songs, going down the line one song and one artist after another. Invariably, someone will change their playlist in reaction to the previous song played, another will chime in with a guitar solo, or impeccable harmony.
• St. Augustine is Northeast Florida's songwriter capital, the home of acclaimed singesongwriter, Gamble Rogers and the many who followed him, from Bob Patterson to Davis Loose. The musicians included in these third Tuesday events were raised here, or have moved to St. Augustine and the surrounding area. The respect they have for each other and the joy they find in playing together is evident at every performance.
• Admission: Admission is free, guests may purchase food and drinks.
• When: The third Tuesday of every month, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m.
• Where: At the Oasis Deck and Restaurant, 4000 A1A South, St. Augustine Beach, Florida 32080

Pecha Kucha Night: Industry Night 2024

This 20X20 format allows each presenter only six minutes and 40 seconds to tell their story. During any Pecha Kucha night, the audience can expect to learn something, laugh, feel empathy, and be surprised.
• On May 21, chefs, managers, and bakers are among those who share their industry experience through their words and photos.
• Admission: A donation of $10.00 is requested to help fund these events. There will be a cash bar, and the opportunity to purchase food from the African Love Kitchen Food Truck.
